I have both and I'd agree with a tramp does not improve your jump game but it does get you more comfortable in the air and is a ton of fun to just go out and jump for however long you want.  However, there is also a point in that a setup will hugely help your rail game.  There are maybe one or two tricks i can think of that I haven't learned in the summer.  Plus there is no better party starter than a nice group session... but its really your choice.  Either way youre gonna have fun.

somebody earlier said trampoline to down rail

you could probably put on old skis, dull the edges (ski blades would work better), put the rail on the edge of the trampoline and jump onto the rail?

sounds mad sketch but i'd like to see someone try it

setups are fun, but putting gear on and dragging shit out and setting it up everytime for like an hour or two of seshing sucks, plus nothing compares to the feeling of throwing dubs on trampolines

Deffinitley tramp. All my good tricks iv learned on tramps and then just take them over. backyard setups are good but i find them more work to keep walking back up and its not as fun. Tramps there are so many trick possibilities and they make skiing so much more fun.

I've had years with both...

I'd say TRAMP. Reason being they're way more versatile ie. anyone can use them, all hours , no soapy water/prep needed. Plus I'd rather be good at jumps than rails.

Also you can have heaps of fun double bouncing, bouncing off roofs onto them etc. Get a tramp for sure.
